Deep Purple - Burn
(Blackmore/Lord/Paice/Coverdale)
From "Burn" (1974)
--------------------------------
Key: B flat
Intro: GmGm
The sky is red, I don't understand;
F/G
past midnight I still see the land.
Gm
People are sayin' the woman is damned,
CGm
she makes you burn with a wave of her hand.___
The city's ablaze, the town's on fire;
F/G
the woman's flames are reachin' higher.
Gm
We were fools, we called her "liar";
BbFCGmEbCGm
All I hear is "Burn!"_____________
I didn't believe she was devil's sperm;
she said, "Curse you all, you'll never learn!
When I leave there's no return!"
The people laughed till she said, "Burn!"___
Warning came, no one cared;
earth was shakin', we stood and stared.
When it came no one was spared;
Still I hear "Burn!"______________
DmBb
You know we had no time,
AmBb
we could not even try,______
DmBb/DC/DGm
You know we had no time.
The sky is red, I don't understand;
past midnight, I still see the land.
People are sayin' the woman is damned;
she makes you burn with a wave of her hand.
Warning came, no one cared;
earth was shakin, we stood and stared.
When it came no one was spared.
Still I hear "Burn!"

"Use pull-offs and hammer-ons....this is basically a two finger riff."
RIFF SUGGESTION 2: (from Tomas (etxtlm@sta.ericsson.se))

accurate:

b'stard in black does (I know he plays Space Truckin' differently to me)"
